Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue on Windows 11 with a highlighted file and Ctrl+C, confirming whether the status-bar message appears without copying. Trace the file-manager copy path from that action and verify that the selected file is actually copied; done means Ctrl+C copies it successfully on Windows 11.
